The number of people visiting Disneyland Paris has dropped precipitously in the past year.

The theme park reported a 10 percent drop in guests and 7 percent decline in revenue.

"Disneyland Paris had an exceptionally challenging year. We have been impacted by various external factors that have significantly affected the tourism business in the Paris region," said Euro Disney president Catherine Powell in the statement, according to The Local.

Tourism in Paris accounts for seven-percent of France’s national gross domestic product and 13 percent in the Ile-de-France region. In the Ile-de-France area alone, 500,000 people hold jobs linked to tourism but hotel stays fell by 8.5percent over the summer.

Disneyland Paris is set to celebrate its 25th anniversary in next year.
